Dry rot is a type of wood-decaying fungus called Serpula Lacryman and removes some of the main properties of timber, leaving it brittle and weak. Dry rot can travel through building materials other than timber, giving outbreaks the potential to spread quickly through a building. Eventually, the decay can cause instability and collapse in houses and other wooden structures.
There are several red flags to look out for that indicate the presence of dry rot in your timber or surfaces on your property. Signs of dry rot include:

Dry rot typically occurs when airborne spores contact damp timber with a moisture content of over 20%. Once contact is made, these spores germinate and grow into mycelium which covers timber in a thick cotton-wool-like substance. This substance then eats the wood and removes the moisture from it, then it advances into a sporophore (fruiting body) which generates more spores and continues the lifecycle. In this way, dry rot can be detrimental as a wood-destroying fungus and should be treated immediately. Give London Damp Proofing a call today for your FREE no-obligation quote!

If you spot dry rot, it’s vital to get it treated immediately to stop further structural decay from taking hold.To preserve the lifespan of your property and its structure, dry rot must be treated as soon as you notice it.
Once present, dry rot can quickly spread throughout the structural timber of your home. This is why it’s important to take remedial action immediately and stop the spread of dry rot in its tracks.
Damp environments contribute to several health conditions including asthma and other respiratory problems. Untreated dry rot can further impact your well-being and health and should be treated immediately to safeguard your health.
